The capacity of governing institutions to adapt to changing social conditions was a critical component of Australian post-war history. As jurist, social reformer, sponsor and mentor of an emerging Australian criminology, criminal justice practitioner, intellectual and internationalist, John Barry was an exemplar of an activist in this cause. This study explores the dimensions of this activity of institution-building and intellectual engagement through the record of Barry's life in its political and social context. Outcomes will include a published biography and articles dealing with the conditions of intellectual and political engagement in social reform in post-war Australia.

政府机构适应不断变化的社会条件的能力是澳大利亚战后历史的一个重要组成部分。作为法学家、社会改革家、新兴的澳大利亚犯罪学的赞助者和导师、刑事司法从业者、知识分子和国际主义者，约翰巴里是这一事业中活动家的典范。本研究通过记录巴里在政治和社会背景下的生活，探讨了这种机构建设和智力参与活动的维度。其成果将包括一本出版的传记和一些文章，这些文章涉及战后澳大利亚社会改革中知识分子和政治参与的条件。
